I like the subtle effects in 1st. Simple background looks good in this, but pure white is just boring, not simple. Try adding a good texture there, probably.
Text placement is way off. Never tuck it away in corner, it just distracts from focal. The first place coming to mind where text could placed is above and left from her shoulder, on intersection of thirds. (About rule of thirds for text: http://www.gfxvoid.com/forums/showthread.php?t=53968)

Second is kind of weird. Most of the tag is blured, the sharpened parts are placed randomly.
